Question

I was looking at the documentation page for jScroll plugin for jQuery (http://demos.flesler.com/jquery/scrollTo) and I noticed this :

$(...).scrollTo( $('ul').get(2).childNodes[20], 800 );

So, what does the three dots in jQuery mean ? I have never seen this selector before

EDIT :

DOM Element

This is from the source HTML. Viewing the source for the following links :

Relative 
selectorjQuery 
objectDOM 
ElementAbsolute 
numberAbsolute

all give the same implementation.

EDIT : I didnt look at the attribute clearly, its for the title attribute. I assumed its the href attribute. Feel silly asking this question now 🙂 Thanks for the answers

Answer 1

I am fairly certain that he was using that as an example.

$( ... ) would be akin to $( your-selector-here ).

In other words, I have never seen any implementation of that.
